The sugar was almost finished, so Tyran went out at three o'clock in the morning, and went to the humble market behind the blacksmith, he still retained his old habits, and had an inexplicable sense of disobedience to going out late at night, but was soon diluted by the bright lights outside—because of someone's extremely chaotic habits, the fortress would not sleep even at night, it was not as busy as during the day, but it could always see people who did not return home at night.

The thin sound of looms came from the building, and there were people huddled around the corner in strange poses...... Although a ban was enacted, there were always a few bottles of liquor that sneaked into the fortress along with various supplies.

The blacksmith's shop was brightly lit, and the most scarce tools were made for the endless construction that unfolded everywhere, and it was next to the barracks, and in order not to disturb the sleep of those who were active during the day, it was prescribed that only work at night, such as carpentry, which would not make too much noise...... A high-pitched, piercing roar rang out, and Tyran saw workers working on the wood with a cutter...... This is another change in the Valley of the Hearth, where the techniques of gnomes and dwarves are widely used in many fields.

Bypassing the blacksmith's shop, Tyran saw a small street market open all night, where supplies were scarce, everyone was queuing, and the longest line was lined up by merchants selling spices, herbs, and sugar.

Great, my sweet party!

Tyran came to the back of the line, and when it came to snapping up goods, no one would let you jump in line because of your prestige and status...... Then he saw the strangest people in the fortress...... Two.

"I'm not going to let you cut the line, even if you look at me with that pitiful look. "A ...... in a thick leather coat holding a hand stove The dwarf said to the customer behind him, "I am a hard-hearted explorer, there is no country in this world that I have not visited, I have seen a lot, you, you are still too young. ”

"I didn't say I was going to cut in line, I just asked why you didn't leave here yet. The simple, thinly dressed customer in the back said dissatisfiedly, it was a crisp and squeamish voice that was completely out of line with the war, with the fortress, with the army, with the steel, with the cold winter and the surrounding qiē, and that it should never be a crisp and squeamish voice here in common sense.

"Why did I leave here? Just because I'm a dwarf? You arrested and imprisoned me for this, and now you're going to drive me away because of this? Why? Just because I'm Danmorrow's child, a dwarf?"

"Don't be unreasonable, it's not me who caught you, it's better to say that I saved you, go home as soon as you should go home, don't probe your brain in a sensitive area every day, beware of being taken away as a suspicious element one day. ”

"Don't you want to get rid of me! Threats are useless! I'm a glorious explorer of Ironforge Fort, and it's my duty to record a change in humanity and geography and send it back to the Explorers' Guild!"

"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you. ”

The procession moved slowly forward, and there was a sudden commotion in the front, as if there was not much sugar left for sale.

"Let me tell you, I know your boss very well. ”

"Huh, who is Magni? I don't know Magni. ”

"I didn't mention Magni. ”

[Dwarven language] "Don't do it, human!"

"Get out of the way, dwarves!"

[Gnomy] "Amazing to be able to speak dwarven language?"

[Gnome] "I'm sorry, but this is my area of expertise. ”

"Again?"

[Salas] "Whatever." ”

"It's time to throw in the towel!"

[Orc language] "Cricket dwarf, explode!

"Tsk, I didn't expect there to be linguists in such a small place...... You're great, little girl. ”

"No, no, that's all I can do, you seem to be very knowledgeable, if it's convenient, come to me for a bowl of hot soup." ”

"The ......"

"Of course, there is ale, but I haven't asked your name yet. ”

"We're good friends! you're welcome, just call me Brian. ”

Brian ...... This hat...... Brian Copperbeard!! I read about you in a magazine recently, and you weren't captured by the trolls of Zulgrab!"

"Ah...... I escaped...... Then he was captured by the Scarlet Crusaders...... Do you really know Magni well?"

"I met Cheng dù a few years ago. ”

He ...... Is my brother okay?"

"It's good. ”

Tyran looked at the pinkfur and dwarves who had switched from attacking each other to complimenting each other and then breaking into the old mode, and then at the last packet of candy on the counter, silently chose to cut the line, and quietly slipped away after the merchant hung up the sell-out sign.

Blind integrity can only make mistakes, and Tyran is a man who knows how to improvise.

Of course, as the Duke of Hearthvale, he would never bow his knee to the little girl of another Duke's family...... But if you have a good salary, it's not that you can't think about taking on a role as a consultant or something.

This is for the people of Hearthvale, not because there is no money!

……

"Miss Consul, this way, please. ”

Anne nodded and stepped out of the building where the portal was located, the warm sunlight through the mist brought a little warmth to the winter, but her mood was not good, every time Loria sent a letter back, she asked for money, food, this and that, although she replaced many disobedient guys with people from Hearthvalley, didn't she know that she had already worked hard just to maintain the stability on the surface?

Tut...... What a vast territory that straddles two plague lands, what a rich land that connects the main sea trade routes, what a glorious regime that defends liberty and love...... If you think about it a little, you can see that there are many obstacles that are difficult to overcome, but the picture she describes is inexplicably yearning for it: one day, before the grand council or some other center of power, there will be a statue of us, what do you want to carve on the monument next to it? the founder of our great nation, the teacher of human ideals and souls, the founder of modern civilization, the patron saint of freedom and justice?

The pesky pink hair has firmly grasped her weaknesses, she may like to sleep lazily, and she also wants to spend the rest of her life carefree and leisurely, but there is always some lingering pursuit in her heart...... Obsession with past failures.

Hethrop may have been a failed queen, but she was not a wise prime minister through the ages, and she was still sung and remembered in the days when the king's remains were all powdered...... La-la-la, la-la, thinking of this, Anne, who was clenched into my fists, couldn't help but show a silly smile, she is a person with great pursuits.

The land beneath her feet, surrounded by mist and sea, was where her dream began...... To win over Loria's staunchest supporters, start by changing the name of the place to New Steinbrad. (To be continued.) )
